Question

Uttarakhand in India has topped in implementing the ICJS i.e. One Data One Entry 2.0 up to January 2026. The expression ICJS meant:

• A. Inter-Operable Criminal Justice System
• B. Integrated Criminal Justice System
• C. Integrated Computerised Justice System
• D. Interlinked Criminal Justice System

Hint:

To remember this, focus on the word "Inter-operable." In IT and law, inter-operability is the ability of different systems to exchange information. Since this system connects five different "pillars," it must be inter-operable.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Recall the context.
ICJS is a flagship initiative of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to digitally integrate India's criminal justice agencies so they can share data seamlessly.
Step 2: Break down the acronym.
I = Inter-Operable, C = Criminal, J = Justice, S = System. "Inter-Operable" means different agencies can exchange data without friction.
Step 3: Verify with the 5 pillars.
The five pillars are CCTNS (Police), e-Courts, e-Prosecution, e-Forensics, and e-Prisons - all linked under one data-sharing platform. Uttarakhand topped implementation up to January 2026.
\[ \boxed{\text{Inter-Operable Criminal Justice System}} \]
